: Good idea. Unfortunately, I think that due to the way MediaWiki works, this means editing all the items tagged with that category (unless there's a trick I'm unaware of). However, perhaps I should tweak [[User:COPTR Bot|COPTR Bot]] to do this too. [[User:Andy Jackson|Andy Jackson]] ([[User talk:Andy Jackson|talk]]) 21:22, 20 November 2013 (UTC) | : Good idea.

:: Hmm ... the StackOverflow page links to an OpenID checker, but I'm a bit scared of it because it exposes all the info you enter there to a publicly viewable log ... Not keen on using Google either, because they're, well ... Google. The main point of course is that the success of COPTR will depend completely on community involvement, and if the login procedure is already such a stumbling block that's not going to help there. Also the procedure to get the OpenID isn't terribly straightforward, and this will scare off potential contributors as well. So I would consider adding a non-OpenID login procedure, perhaps augmented with a CAPTCHA to keep the robots at bay (e.g. like the Archiveteam Formats Wiki).
